that ANYTHING is being "handed over" to AOC at this juncture.


I know--- you've on a rant that appears to be headed in both directions at once! LOL

I do believe that the Democratic party needs to recognize and advance younger leadership,
whether it is AOC or anyone else....

we shouldn't allow the GQP to misrepresent themselves as being the party of younger ideals.
